Looks good. Did you mount it on rubber feet or washers? Compressor shake/vibrate a lot.

Good work.

Will stay high and dry there.

Two tips,

1. Hit up Clark Rubber and find a rubber cap for the hose connection to keep the rubbish out.

2. Once it's connected to the battery, the rocker switch will constantly illuminate. You'll need to disconnect the wire from the switch. It'll still work, just without the lightning on the rocker switch. Unless you wire an on/off switch between the main switch and the battery.

No worries.

I've done the same thing a couple of times with my previous vehicles.

if it were me i would be happier if the bent support was an angle for more rigidity.I like the method tho

This looks awesome will definitely give this a go. They are great compressors but take up a bit of room in the toolbox they come in.
Cheers for the pics

Is disconnecting the switch as simple as popping it out & removing the light wire from the back? The manual doesn't really show this.

EDIT: Just had a close look, the switch pops out with the wires connected to the rear, one of them will be for the light, just a matter of working out which is for the light & pulling out that wire.

Yep👍

Nice first attempt Chris, good to see someone thinking neat and using factory bolt locations.

However that aluminium doesn't look very thick in those pics especially the angle. I think it should have been a bit beefier and better triangulated. I don't think it would handle corrogations or rougher tracks very well. The aluminium rivets are also a bit light on. I would keep an eye on it.
